This is probably the only time when a witch as powerful as Cassie doesn't listen to Isis. The mystical cat knew there was something odd about the new visitor from the moment he appeared. Cassie only wanted to see the good in him as she sees the good in all. There isn't anything wrong with that but she overlooked the guest's sinister plans. Cassie's beautiful garden is just fairytale. The story is like something from a dream. The characters are all sugary but lovely, especially the kids and grandpa.

Not bad film where a woman living in a place of history is about to lose it to someone who goes around the state producing false deeds to drive out people from their property. This gentleman then goes on to sell the property to developers.Catherine Bell is absolutely delightful as our Good Witch. Billie Burke, of The Wizard of Oz, take heart: There are still some good witches left after all these years.Catherine loves the widowed police chief and also thwarts 2 youngsters from doing something bad on Centennial night. They had tried to force the chief's son to go along with this dangerous prank.

I love to watch horror movies on Halloween, but when I tuned in to "Good Witch", I was hooked for the next 3 hours. It was a pleasant change from my usual viewing. I thoroughly enjoyed the mystery without the violence. The story line was wonderful how a mysterious, unknown and unwelcome lady on her own made her mark on the community by helping the townspeople with their problems and was ultimately accepted. And, for me, the character of Cassie Nightingale could not have been cast any better than with Catherine Bell. She is arguably one of the most beautiful women on television. Watching her and Jake and Jake's children grow ever closer as the tale unfolded left me with a good "family value" feeling. Thank you, and I hope to be seeing more of the "Good Witch" in future Hallmark presentations.Bob

In the initial offering we learned that this mysterious, happy, calm lady is in town to fix up and live in the Grey House, which had fallen into disrepair. This movie is a continuation of that story, with a bit more focus on the "garden." But that is not the root of the mystery.Pretty Catherine Bell is back as Cassandra Nightingale. Her house is all fixed up and her garden is brimming with all kinds of different plants. She has made lots of friends in the small town, but has also decided to take in guests to help meet expenses. Run a sort of Bed and Breakfast service.Also back is Chris Potter as town Sheriff Jake Russell. In the first movie they started to develop a romantic interest in each other, and that continues in this movie.The significant event is the new stranger in town who takes a room at the Grey House then starts to get nosy. He goes into the public records to find out such things as how much taxes Cassandra pays, and we see him sneaking in the house to examine things that are locked up. Sheriff Russell is suspicious and doesn't trust him.While this one didn't hold my interest as well as the initial one did, mainly because the newness had gone, it is an entertaining movie, especially for Catherine Bell.SPOILERS: The stranger eventually gives legal papers to the Sheriff to have Cassandra evicted from Grey House because he claims to be the real descendant of the real owner, a sea captain that the Grey Lady had been tied to. But he was eventually exposed as a fraud and locked up. Cassandra and Jake get engaged.
